RISKLINE  565-7475
 
RiskLine Assists Those in Crisis
Are you a parent whose child is having difficulty connecting at school? Are there
family issues where your child may need extra support? Do you see the early
warning signs of drug use or depression?
Are you a student having problems in relationships? Are you stressed out about
family issues? Do you have something that's making your life difficult and you're
just not sure where to turn and whom to trust?
Are you a teacher with a student who needs help with anger management or
social skills? Do you have a student who’s not responding to your efforts to reach
out to him?
Established in 1988, RiskLine is a 24-hour service for students, parents or
employees to access guidance and referrals for counseling support. Individuals can
also call with anonymous referrals for threats of violence or weapons in schools.
RiskLine is staffed by counselors in the Student Intervention Services Department
24-hours a day, seven days a week: (801) 565-RISK (7475).

RISKLINE is designed primarily as a listening line and referral service. It is the goal of the Riskline counselors to help connect the caller with schoolprograms, community resources, or private agencies.  Riskline counselors also recognize that people in crisis sometimes just need someone who will listen, validate their feelings, and help them think through their options. All calls are free and confidential.

RISKLINE is a crisis hotline devoted to meeting the needs of the patrons of the Jordan School District—its students, parents, and teachers. Riskline is staffed by trained school counselors and psychologists and is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
